It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

I've been trying to figure out what to get for the plate for my new car (link goes to a photo). (Up here in Maine personalized license plates are super-cheap so its pretty common.) Right now the lead contender for this black car I'm probably going to buy is either GRUE or A GRUE.

Which leads me, of course, to the Grue entry on Wikipedia, which is really really detailed and includes a ton of "Zork Lore". Which lead me to this article on interactive fiction.

So, what do you think? GRUE or A GRUE??

STLIAM, like my truck.

Either would be brilliant. I think that because the reference is "...eaten by a grue" that A GRUE makes the most sense, but either one would be wicked awesome.
